Sun Dahai and Ah-Dai have completed all the preliminary preparations and have stewed what needs to be stewed. Now they are waiting for the guests to arrive to complete the final process of preparing the dishes.
Chef Cao asked Sun Dahai to prepare to receive the guests, and the rest of the kitchen work was between him and Ah-Dai.
Sun Dahai saw that the time was almost up, so he washed his hands, changed out of his chef uniform, and sat in the living room, chatting with Zheng Peipei and Aunt Song while waiting for the guests to arrive.
…
Ren Youwei went to the hotel to pick up Long Gang after get off work. In the lobby of the hotel, he saw Long Gang sitting on the sofa, talking to someone. There was also a little lolita standing next to him, but it was Wen Bixia whom he had just met on the set.
Seeing Ren Kuei coming, Long Gang ended the conversation. He stood up and introduced to Ren Kuei: "Ahua, this is Director Wu Yusen, Director Wu, this is Ren Kuei."
Ren Kuang quickly stepped forward, held Wu Yusen's hand, and said, "Hello, Director Wu. I have watched many of your films. My favorites are "Fa Qian Han" and "Funny Times"."
"Hello, the movie "The Informant" you filmed last year was also good."
After the two of them finished their greetings, Wen Bixia said to Ren Kuei: "Brother Hua, I asked Director Long yesterday. I heard that you and Dahai were going to practice for Director Long, so today I made my own decision and came to have a meal. You don't mind, right? ?”
She shook Ren Tuanyi's arm, her big eyes gleaming, coquettishly and flatteringly.
Ren Kuanxi patted her head and said: "Okay, little sister, I agree to let you eat. However, if the dinner is delicious and you can't control your mouth, you eat too much and can't maintain your body shape, don't do it." It’s my fault.”
The three of them went to Cao Ji's private restaurant together and met Sun Dahai who was waiting in the living room.
After Wen Bixia greeted Sun Dahai, Long Gang, and Wu Yusen, she immediately rushed up to her with all her teeth and claws, insisting that Sun Dahai call her sister, and she seemed determined not to give up until she accepted Sun Dahai as her younger brother.
But why is Sun Dahai so easy to get along with? He called Sister Xia with a few words, casually asked a question about the movie, and gently changed the topic, causing Long Gang, Wu Yusen and others to start discussing, and also asked Wen Bixia to stop it My brother's thoughts were forgotten in his mind.
What Sun Dahai asked was why the martial arts actions in Xiangjiang movies are all about hard bridges and hard horses, each move is precise and orderly. It's just like the double sparring in martial arts competitions, it's very fake.
Several people began to think about this issue from different positions. Long Gang and Wu Yusen considered factors such as shooting costs and the ability of the actors more from the director's perspective.
As actors, Ren Kuei and rookie Wen Bixia, from the perspective of actors, think about the different visual effects brought by different performance methods, as well as the audience's acceptance of this.
At this time, another guest came.
Ren Kuanwei greeted them and introduced them one by one. In fact, he mainly introduced them to Sun Dahai and Wen Bixia, with whom Long Gang had known each other before.
The ones here now are brothers Lam Lingdong and Johnnie To. Lam Lingdong and Ren Kuei were both classmates in the third term of TVB’s artist training class, and To Qifeng was in the fourth term. He is now the same as Lam Lingdong , studied under Wang Tianlin, mainly studying directing and producing.
While we were talking, two more guests pushed the door open and came in.
When Sun Dahai took a look, it turned out to be the two of them.
The guests coming this time are absolutely big names, and they are also big stars that Sun Dahai knows, Chow Yun-fat and Zhong Chuhong.
"Brother Fa, Ah Hong, are you here because of the time?" Ren Kuangxi stepped forward and gently hit Chow Yun-fat on the shoulder with his fist.
The young Chow Yun-fat showed his iconic smile and said: "Brother Hua, you are too polite. You are older than me. I should call you Brother Hua."
Ren Kuanwei said to Chow Yun-fat: "We are only two months apart. We are actually the same age and the same age."
Johnnie To interjected: "My birthday is between the two of you, so it's the same for us?"
Chow Yun-fat ridiculed him: "We are all in the third stage. Although A Dong is younger than you, you still want to be called 'Senior Brother'. Who cares? You are in the fourth stage."
However, you and A Dong have both changed careers to be directors. When we meet in the future, you will call us Senior Brother, and we will call you Director Lin and Director Du. We are both great."
The four of them are all classmates in the wireless artist training class, and they were all born in 1955. They are very familiar with each other.
Ren Kuang introduced each other to everyone in turn. When it was Sun Dahai's turn at last, Ren Kuang said: "This is a relative of my family. Don't underestimate him. Although he is young, he is very capable. He has only been in Xiangjiang for more than a month. , you will have your own industry.”
Wen Bixia was surprised and said: "Haidai has his own industry? Brother Hua, tell me."
Ren Kuanxi smiled and shook his head, refusing to say anything more.
Sun Dahai ignored Wen Bixia. He took out a new notebook and pen that he had prepared, and said to Chow Yun-fat: "Brother Fa, I am your die-hard movie fan. Can you sign your name for me?"
"of course."
Chow Yun-fat is a very enthusiastic person. He asked Sun Dahai how to write his name, and on the first page of his notebook, he wrote "I wish Sun Dahai will make progress in his studies and success in his career. Chow Yun-fat" in big and flying characters.
Sun Dahai turned to Zhong Chuhong, but for a moment he didn't know how to call her. The nickname Hong Gu didn't come into being until she finished filming "Across the World" in 1991.
Sun Dahai looked at Zhong Chuhong and said, "Aunt Hong, I am also a fan of yours. Can you sign your autograph for me too?"
Hong Gu was happy and said: "I didn't expect you really knew me. But why did you call him 'Fa Ge' but you called me 'Hong Gu'? Isn't this a seniority difference? Can you tell?" If there is a reasonable reason, I will sign it for you."
"I'm not from Xiangjiang, but I heard from people in Xiangjiang that calling a woman 'gu' not only means that she is older, but also means that she is very feminine. I really like your work in "The Story of Hu Yue" performance in the movie, so I call you 'Hong Gu'."
Zhong Chuhong laughed so hard that she said: "Okay, my age is here anyway, and I am not afraid of being called old. I guess what you said makes sense. If you pass the test, I will sign it for you now."
After Sun Dahai got Hong Gu's signature, he just kept going and walked around to get the signatures of everyone present.
When it was busy, the last group of guests arrived.
The person who came this time, Sun Dahai, looked familiar, but I didn't recognize him.
However, as they greeted each other, Sun Dahai soon knew that these two people were the famous old monsters Xu Hark and Shi Nansheng.
Now all the guests have arrived. After exchanging greetings, Ren Kuangxi invited everyone to sit down in the private room and prepared to start the meal.
Long Gang was the target of this drinking practice, and he was the oldest and most senior senior present, so he naturally had to sit at the top. Wu Yusen and Tsui Hark, who were only younger than him in age and status, sat at the bottom of him. .
Wen Bixia came with Long Gang, so she sat next to Shi Nansheng.
Ren Kuai was the host, sitting on the right side of Long Gang accompanying the guests. Johnnie To, Chow Yun-fat, Lam Lingdong and Zhong Chuhong sat down in order of age.
Sun Dahai, the youngest, has become the biggest beneficiary. Although he is ranked last, he is right between the two beauties Zhong Chuhong and Wen Bixia.
Sun Dahai looked left and right. On one side was 22-year-old Zhong Chuhong and on the other was 16-year-old Wen Bixia. His face was calm, but his heart was very beautiful.
